IMPRQVEMENT lNTolLE'r-BRACKETS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 133,640, dated December3, 1872.

To allvwhom it may concern:

Be it known that I, JAMES S. FLETCHER, of South Bend, in the county ofSt. Joseph and in the State of Indianamhave invented certain new anduseful Improvements in rEoilet-Brackets; and do hereby declare that thefollowing is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, referencebeing had to the accompaand use the same, I will now proceed to describeits construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, inWhich- Figure l is a perspective vie-wot' my toiletbracket, and Fig. 2represents the molding above the glass.

The back of my vtoilet-bracket is made in two equal parts, A A, which,when placed together, form a space, B, for the looking-glass. These twoparts are connected by means ot' a rosette, C, at the top, moldings Dand E at the top and bottom of the space B, respectively, and by the boxGr belowthe molding E. vThe box Gr consists of a top and a bottom,connected by end pieces, and doors H H forming the front. These doorsare hinged at the corners and meet in the center, as shown. lhe moldingD vover the top of the glass is intended to be made in the 'form shownin Fig. P that is, not half circle, but of the shape usual forlooking-glasses. 1t is made by shaping it one side with the shaper andthen reversing it for the other side. The usual way ot' forming saidmoldings has been with a lathe, inV

the form of rings, and then cut in'two halves.

The moldings D and E are connected by other moldings J J on the sides.

Having thus fully described my inventon, what I claim as new, and desireto secure by Letters Patent, is y The within-described toilet-bracket,consisting of two halves, A A, forming the back, the

rosette G, moldings D E and J J, and box G with doors H H, allconstructed and arranged substantially as and for the purposes hereinset forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set` my hand.this 29th day of April,`1872.

JAMES S. FLETCHER.
